Overview
Leather, Chocolate, and Cinnamon give Villiger 1888 Nicaragua Tobacco Tactical Exclusive its center of gravity, while the 6X52 BOX-PRESSED keeps the progression measured. Both sides of the Villiger 1888 Nicaragua Tobacco Tactical Exclusive collaboration are visible, but the cigar still stands on its own once the band comes off.
The Story
Inside the December 2024 club selection.
December delivered our first shop-exclusive Villiger collaboration to the club, a 6 x 52 box press that tied Ecuador Habano to Nicaraguan and U.S. tobaccos. With Villiger 1888 Nicaragua Tobacco Tactical Exclusive, we would rather preserve the history than rewrite it into a cleaner story after the fact.

Why We Recommend It
For smokers exploring Tobacco Tactical's club archive.
Pass Villiger 1888 Nicaragua Tobacco Tactical Exclusive to the smoker who notices transitions, because Leather, Chocolate, Cinnamon, and Honey do not arrive all at once. A full session with Villiger 1888 Nicaragua Tobacco Tactical Exclusive gives the later notes room to catch up with the first impression.
